Reply To: The Gods of Ancient Egypt

[Raven Shaw]

I think it’s very important that you pointed out the difference in environment for the Egyptians and Mesopotamians, and how that would influence their art and religion. The resources on hand to create statues and scenes were different, I think the Egyptians had a bit of an advantage in having stuff to make paper with. It’s also worth pointing out that the two cultures traded with each other, bouncing ideas back and forth and putting their own unique shine on them. Egypt and Mesopotamia influenced each other as soon as they could trade together.
